I don't know - I wasn't aware of the cards being worth any particular 
amount - I just bought them to get the one with the dongle for my //e!

My IIgs, thanks to your and everyone elses help, is now (okay, some bits 
are in the mail/in progress):

ROM 03, 4Mb, TranwarpGS with small cache (8K I presume), AE Audio 
Animator, ComputerEyes (probably being removed when the TWGS goes in), 
RamFAST SCSI Rev. D, 1 x 800K floppy, 2 x 5.25. I guess the only things 
I wanted for it were Superdrive and card, though that's low priority now 
I have SCSI and network behaving and the Superdrives/cards are worth a 
fair bit.

Hmmm, that's a good point - the DB9 would be fine for the lower port at 
the very least, and alright for the upper port for early-style LocalTalk 
boxes - assuming pinouts are much the same. The proper box is MiniDIN, 
so I was going by that pinout.

BTW, I am still working on that other thing, but I think that what I 
sent is accurate - I get the same results each time.
